How to Fix Error Occurred While Attempting To Read The Boot Configuration Data Message
The most likely cause of this error is that you tried to dual boot two operating systems and then later decided to remove one. This inadvertently may have deleted the BCD boot store. The trick here is to run the above commands in the right order and set your boot partition to active.
Set Boot Partition Active
Boot from your DVD and choose the "Repair Your Computer" option. From the Command Prompt type:
Code:
diskpart
Press Enter key and then type:
Code:
list disk
Press Enter key to get a list of physical disks installed.
In the example here I only have one disk in my machine, if you have more than one identify the disk which has the Windows boot partition on it and then select it. Select it by typing:
Code:
select disk 0
Now type following command:
Code:
list volume
Select volume with letter C assign to it by typing:
Code:
Select volume 1
Type following command:
Code:
Active
Windows should report the partition is now marked as active.
Now reboot if the issue not resolved boot into the Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE) again.
Repair the MBR, boot sectors and BCD store
From the WinRE execute following commands one at a time:
Code:
bootrec /fixmbr
bootrec /fixboot
bootrec /rebuildbcd
This will will build a new bcd boot store. Now reboot your machine one last time and it should work.
